The rest of the chassis is ok but losing paint and has some minor surface rust in places



And the odd tiny bit of bubbling on the body, doors, bottom of the windscreen

Have found "Rustroy" to be very effective on the cancer

My injector pump is seriously pissing diesel

Haha yep, old girls are long in the tooth.
Check it isn't something simple, my patrol did the same but turned out it was a $20 fuel cut solenoid

Will have to look at it next week. Diesel is cheap at least!

If it is the seal where the throtle is it is like a 2 dollar part and a piece of piss to replace.
If it is the main drive shaft seal or any gasket you may as well pull it and do all the seals and fit a boost compensator for when you fit the turbo.

[QUOTE=gimp;516277]I have the same thing. Except mine works flawlessly. Wonder if you can get the vsv fixed. Also I think putting it in 4LO engages the tfer case even if the vacuum doesn't

Ah ha

I did the unthinkable and dropped it off at a Toyota service place to get the leak fixed because I don't have time to try do it myself in the next 10 days and it was becoming a problem

Re the transfer case. I have the entier guts out of a vacume operated transfer case in a box with each part carefully sealed into a labeled zip loc bag. Keen to get it out of my garage if it's of any help. Will swap for bottle of single malt.

^^ I shall consider it, thanks


Finally got around to buying a Chinese primer pump for a 1pz off the internet, arrived and installed today, works as far as I can tell, fits perfect, $52



Has been blowing a lot of black smoke since I had the IP seal done, going to check my valve clearances, and if that doesn't fix it I'll have to take it to a diesel shop to get the IP or injectors looked at I guess? May have been smoking before but I never noticed it

Starts like magic after swapping the fuel filter primer, first crank after sitting for 8 days. Did spew a big spray of soot(?) out of the exhaust onto my garage wall though
